RoE D4 Pt 15



“Hey. I went out and got some fruit and stuff for breakfast,” said Rob. I want to contribute.”

“Ugh. One of the first things you can stop contributing to is the dirt and smell here.”

“From previous looking around,” said Rob, “I know where the showers are here. Must of been put in for the workers who worked long hours. Anyways I got a towel and a change of clothes stashed in a box near the break area.”

“Well then let’s get to it.”

Kristin picked up the bags of breakfast fixings as Rob took off down the stairs. He was pulling his towel and stuff out of a box when she reached the break area.

“I should be done in a jiffy,” said Rob. He took off again down one of the aisles.

Kristin started putting stuff away. Tyrel came in and snatched an apple off the tale.

“I couldn’t sleep last night. Kept thinking about Dean and Shawn,” he said.

“I wish there was some way for us to get a status update,” said Kristin.

Darrel came in pulling on his T-shirt. “We can risk a phone call and say I’m like their uncle or something.”

Kristin sighed. “Our group is dwindling and we know less and less about what has happened to them.”

“I’m going to check on our houseguest.”said Darrel.

“He is in the shower,” said Kristin. “I went and got him when I first got up.”

“You shouldn’t have done that.”

“Darrel, he knows this place better than we do. Also, he stunk. I’m sure he is no harm.”

Rob came in dressed in green overalls drying his hair with the towel. “I think I got too much water in my ears.”

“You’ll be alright, kid.” said Darrel.

Rob lowered the towel revealing a generous clump of bright red curls.

Kristin ruffled his bangs. “You look good, kiddo.”

“How ‘bout we eat some of this grub?” said Tyrel.
